<a name="GtkMisc.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>
The <a class="link" href="GtkMisc.html" title="GtkMisc"><span class="type">GtkMisc</span></a> widget is an abstract widget which is not useful itself, but
is used to derive subclasses which have alignment and padding attributes.
</p>
<p>
The horizontal and vertical padding attributes allows extra space to be
added around the widget.
</p>
<p>
The horizontal and vertical alignment attributes enable the widget to be
positioned within its allocated area. Note that if the widget is added to
a container in such a way that it expands automatically to fill its
allocated area, the alignment settings will not alter the widgets position.
